Other claims from this paper (4)
- Intervention effect Combined male bract and male flower wounds gave the highest disease incidence.
- Observation Xcm spread systemically and persisted within banana mats for 5–16 months without disease.
- Recommendation Disease symptoms alone are insufficient for managing banana XW.
- Mechanism Long incubation in lateral shoots may explain disease resurgence where eradication had been presumed.
